very fragile you were looking. You
ave not the woman, physically, to be
the society leader that you are. Your
temperament is too sensitive, your
nervous system too delicately organized
to stand the strain. Other women do
it? OfcouIc they do. my dear madam,
but other women are not you We do
noteXpect the same wear from q deli
cate piece of Sevres porcelain that We

All, yes; show the young man in! 0e-
mains seated.) All, from the Daay
Bulletin, to inquire after Mr.. Trillion?
Yes2 Just sit down moment, please,
and I'll write out what wish said. A
physician is quite apt to be misquoted.
(,riftes a fe,o momeats.) There-this is
porter of the Daily Bulletin visited DR..
Swell this morning, to obtain the latest
and most authentic report of the Hon.
A. b. G. Trillion's condition. The EN-.
inent physician was found at his home,
No. 8, West -th street, taking brief
rest after his long vigil, nearly
the whole of the preceding night
having been passed at the bedside of
his distinguished patient. He left him
resting easy, pulse and respiration
nearly normal, the remedies used
during the night having produced the
expected beneficial effect. DR.. Swell
does not deny that the situation is eX.
tremcly critical, and one calling for the
most assiduous skill, but he is Of the
opinion that unless some serious com.
plications develop, Mr.. Trillion's s
malady will be controlled by medical
science" That gives correct idea of
the situation. See that 1t goes in as
written. Good morning.
